- If 80% of my city was reduced to rubble and the millions who live in it were maimed and starved to death in a manmade famine I think I'd be sympathetic to armed resistance too. Don't pretend you wouldn't be. Such violence and cruelty against civilians doesn't beget peace. Of course it doesn't.
- The UK is the worst place in Western Europe for LGBTQ people. Only a decade ago we were the best. This is horrendous.
- OMG the ILGA map has been released and this is how the UK looks under their Legal Gender Recognition section. They awarded us 6.57% WTF. rainbowmap.ilga-europe.org/categories/l...

- Reposted by MattThe quote from this article: "We have a bonus scheme to protect our most precious resource, which is the senior management team" from the chair of Thames Water is what I'd write on the guillotine if I was that way inclined.
- The royal college of psychiatrists is frankly a precious bunch. "Someone with terminal cancer might be depressed and we should treat the depression rather than letting them die" If I'm fucking dying anyway let me go out peacefully when I choose rather than whacking me on even more drugs ffs.
- Israel is air striking the European Hospital in Gaza, injuring the BBC cameraman and killing dozens, whilst starving millions of people to death. Fucking disgusting war criminals. Barbarians. Fuck Israel. Fuck everyone who makes excuses for that murderous ethnostate.
- I'm horrified how little media coverage I've seen of this in the UK. We're heading straight for a drought. No new reservoirs are under construction. Nobody seems to be discussing this looming ecological threat. Sure, the sun is lovely, I'm in my garden rn, but the lawn shouldn't be brown in May.
- Sehr ungleich verteilt waren die #Niederschläge in der ersten Maidekade. Kaum Regen in Irland, Großbritannien, wenig in Mitteleuropa, aber viel in Portugal, Spanien, Norditalien, nördliche Balkanhalbinsel.
- We have a crisis in social care and the government's solution is to attack the recruitment of care workers? Insane.
